ABSTRACT:
A device for the recording of the number of steps taken by a pedestrian incorporates a digital incremental counter in the heel -- or attached to the heel -- of a shoe. An operating member projects below the heel and initiates actuation of the counter each time the heel is brought into contact with the ground. Reading the digital display at the beginning and at the end of a stage in a trip yields the number of steps taken and a rough measure of the distance traversed. A reset lever or button may also be provided to zero the display at the start of the measurement cycle.
